The best description of how to find the equation of the line is: D. BD/DA = CE/CA, so 4/2 = y - 3/x ; solve for y to get y = 2x + 3.

<h3>How to Find the Equation of a Line?</h3>

To find the equation of a line, find the slope of the line, using the equation: Slope (m) = change in y/change in x = vertical distance/horizontal distance along a line.

The slope of any two points on a line will be the same with any other two points on the same line. Therefore, the slope of the line in the given diagram is calculated as:

Slope (m) = BD/DA = CE/CA

Substitute

4/2 = y - 3/x

2(y - 3) = 4x

y - 3 = 4x/2

y - 3 = 2x

y = 2x + 3

Therefore, the best description of how to find the equation of the line is: D. BD/DA = CE/CA, so 4/2 = y - 3/x ; solve for y to get y = 2x + 3.

What is the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle below?​
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

the height a creates with half of the baseline (5) and a leg (10) a right-angled triangle, and we can use Pythagoras to calculate a.

c² = a² + b²

c being the Hypotenuse (the side opposite of the 90° angle, so in our case the 10 side).

10² = a² + 5²

100 = a² + 25

75 = a²

a = sqrt(75) = sqrt(3×25) = 5×sqrt(3)

Statistics show that about 42% of Americans voted in the previous national election. If three Americans are randomly selected, w
MrRa [10]

Answer:

19.51% probability that none of them voted in the last election

Step-by-step explanation:

For each American, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they voted in the previous national election, or they did not. The probability of an American voting in the previous election is independent of other Americans. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

42% of Americans voted in the previous national election.

This means that p = 0.42

Three Americans are randomly selected

This means that n = 3

What is the probability that none of them voted in the last election

This is P(X = 0).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.42)^{0}.(0.58)^{3} = 0.1951

19.51% probability that none of them voted in the last election
